December 2013

We have received an email invitation from Mayor Lenny Clotch to attend the New York Fashion Gala Council 1984 to dress up in our current trends, looking up to Diane von Shattenburg. Upon arrival, there were reporters and protestors outside the Sedgewick Hotel and we could see a Ghostbusters car busting around.

After stuffing so much pre-Christmas meals, I have decided to lose some calories and put on my best outfit “vogueing” yoga with Juliet Murrell, a set designer in the fashion, film and design industry. The classes are held in different venues – at a nicely 80s decorated Bethnal Working Men Club with disco ball, or a very spacious and beautiful Finsbury town hall, or… (better keep the venues mysterious for more surprises later!) I had a bad experience of not being able to catch up with the intense normal yoga session, but I managed to nail the new yoga poses with Juliet and pick up my confident again. It was a fun and energetic session stretching my muscle without losing focus along the playful and iconic 80s beat (with live DJ every Tuesday!) whilst trying to hold my balance. I definitely love it as a “dance” class with my breath synchronized with the movement of yoga for an after work relaxation and work out. :)))
